SYSTEM ANALYSIS & DESIGN II

Course Description

This course is about Object-oriented Systems Analysis and Design, which view a system as a collection of self-contained objects that have both data and processes using creation of Unified Modeling Language (UML). UML provides a common vocabulary of object-oriented terms and programming techniques that is rich enough to model any systems development project from analysis and implementation. The Lab work is designed to develop and implement real business systems through lab projects.

Course Rationale

The purpose of this course is to enable students to do SAD—not just read about it, but understand the issues so students can actually analyze and design systems. This course introduces each major techniques of UML , explains what it is, explains how to do it, presents an example, and provides opportunities for students to practice before they do it for real in a project. After completing this course, the student will be able to perform that steps in the system development life cycle (SDLC) process and analyze and design a system by using UML.

Course Objectives

1. Familiar with the advanced concepts of systems analysis and design.
2. Familiar with common modeling techniques of UML.
3. Familiar with Analysis and Design of Information System.
4. Students will become familiar with CASE tools for analysis, design and construction of complex software systems and they can apply analysis, design and construction techniques to a real life system.

Learning Outcomes

Upon successful completion of the course, the students will demonstrate competency by being able to:
1. To differentiate different types of SDLC models and select an appropriate model.
2. To able to use different types of feasibility analysis.
3. To determine the most effective strategies for requirement analysis
4. To determine how to select projects.
5. To understand different types of UML Diagram and implement on the information system
